In a healthy, happy committed relationship each partner should make the other a better person.
They should support each other emotionally, communicate and work through problems together, make big decisions after talking them out, share talents and resources to accomplish goals.
They should Inspire each other. Encourage the other to chase their dreams. They should share their experience, knowledge, passions, strengths with the other. They should value each other's opinions, ideas and suggestions and feed off of each other's energy and excitement. One partner's accomplishments should be celebrated by the other and they should almost be seen a joint achievement because as a team, both put in effort and both benefit.
Personalities should complement each other. Most successful couples are similar in some ways but mostly have different talents and abilities. For example, one is more outgoing and charming and the other is introverted but can sense things about people that no one else picks up on.
There shouldn't be a score kept of who is better at what because it should never be a competition but a co-operation. Strive to be a better you than you were yesterday, which will make you both a better couple tomorrow.
"Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind, the race is long and in the end, it's only with yourself." -Baz luhrmann Lyrics from Sunscreen.
